About this map

Black Mountains terrain dominates this 1980s landscape in Iron County, where the high desert is defined by seasonal catchments and dramatic drainages. The area is marked by a network of stock ponds or local water features such as Tebbs Pond, Burnt Spot Pond, and District Pond, reflecting the importance of water management in this arid Utah environment. At the northern edge of the quadrangle, Dry Willow Peak serves as a prominent landmark overlooking the deep incision of Parowan Canyon.

Evidence of local industry is sparse, limited to a Gravel Pit near the center of the sheet, while the southern reaches are defined by the broad expanse of Long Hollow and the drainage of Jackrabbit Wash. This map provides a clear record of the topographical features and land management boundaries as they existed in the late twentieth century, showing the intersection of Township 31 South and Township 32 South.
